Taxing the motorist

Yesterday The Telegraph reported that
'Motoring organisations and business leaders have expressed concern at plans to charge people hundreds of pounds a year to park their cars at work after councils were ordered by the Government to find new ways of raising money. '
Yes it's the return of the parking at work charge that we all hoped had been buried.

What is most annoying is that whilst people will complain they will pay it and yet another tax on the hardworking British worker will be in place. One day maybe 100% of our income will be taken by the State and we will be allowed tax credits based on perceived need - for taxpayers will soon be slaves to the state. So long as the non-taxed have equal voting rights as taxpayers, what incentive is there for spending to be controlled? The cry must be 'No representation without taxation'
